Change add, edit and delete icon

Question

Can you change the default icon for the add, edit and delete on top of the grid?

Answer 1

You can change the icon for each button individually.
Select the button and click the "Choose Image..." link in the Appearance group in the Properties pane. 

I don't think you can globally change the default icon for each button type.

(I think the default images are built-in to the grid control.)

Answer 7

JaimeH,

It's actually SnagIt by TechSmith.  For more info go to their website here: http://www.techsmith.com/snagit/

It has a lot of functionality for capturing and editing. I bought the version 9 for $29 and I believe I bought the version 10 last year August for about $49 for single user.

 

Or you can also use the Screen Clipping functionality in OneNote (by pressing Start button + S if you have OneNote 2007 or 2010)

Answer 8

Thank for answer Cromanty.

Jaime

Answer 9

If you're asking how to do screen captures with annotations, as seen in Cromanty's post, the SnagIt is very good.

If you're asking what software to use for Image/Icon editing then I'd recommend Axialis Icon Workshop. It makes brilliant icons and is very easy to use.

Answer 10

Anybody know the size for the icon? Or i can use any normal icon? It looks smaller than regular icon.

Answer 11

Small icons are 16x16. Large icons are 32x32.

The visible area of the plus sign is 13x13 and the plus with three dots is 15x13 but there are slight shadows/antialiasing around the solid areas which makes them 15x15 and 15x16.

Both icons sit on a button that is 16x16.
